Synopsis

Keywords: Software Tools, Software Tools, Aneurysm Wall Enhancement

Motivation: Aneurysm wall enhancement visualized on high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging is considered as an indicator of inflammation.

Goal(s): Recently, there has been increased attention on 3D AWE mapping, which is seen as an objective tool for examining rupture risk of aneurysms.However, the roughly estimated vessel wall location and thickness result in some measurement errors.

Approach: In this study, we propose a fast measurement method that can automatically access wall thickness and generate the 3D spatial distribution of wall enhancement ratio.

Results: The automatic method simplifies and accelerates the workflow of aneurysm wall identification and analysis.

Impact: We propose a fast measurement method that can automatically access wall thickness and generate the 3D spatial distribution of wall enhancement ratio. The automatic method simplifies and accelerates the workflow of aneurysm wall identification and analysis.
